Poem
Happiness, happiness, happiness The one thing we all seek What does it really mean The million tonnes of gold we hoard Or the millions of cash stashed in a bank’s vault Fleets of expensive cars cruising the streets Or diamond ornaments glittering for all to see Big parties on yachts and clouds just to please Or a program on tevee just so they may see who it really is All these yet at the end of the day the heart is still not at ease The look within doesn’t satisfy nor please So what really is missing Happiness surely does exist And the truth is that there isn’t a price to it Just a smile and a honest heart spreads the enthusiasm with ease Hearts can’t be bought but friendships can be bribed It’s a choice we all must make To live at ease in adequate means Or to cheat and connive to acquire wealth built of lies At the end of it all, the only room big enough is the one in your soul At the end of the day ...the only compliment worth to be heard is that which you give yourself The only true best friend one can have is the one in the mirror For with that friend is where happiness begins How can you love others if you can’t love yourself How can I honestly appreciate others if I can’t appreciate myself How can they find happiness if they don’t know what it means Happiness is the only thing that the blind can see ...better than the ones who see Happiness is the only thing that the deaf can hear ...better than those who hear Happiness activates the limbs of the handicapped While those appropriately moulded still don’t function efficiently in it Happiness is a destination to which no one can cheat For it requires a sincere pass in each and everyone’s mind and heart You may cheat me with your smile But you can’t cheat the you inside It’s not about me, it’s not about us...It is about you This reality is a syndicate for your happiness Question is, do you recognise it You can afford to buy off all your past And keep it under lock and throw away the keys What matters is now ...for it is here that happiness is to be found Looking back only presents regrets Looking ahead only presents worries It is only when you are happy that tomorrow promises to be a blessing
